Part 4/7:
It is at this juncture that Ling, a character who appears deceptively helpful, enters the narrative, offering Guan a potential path to find his daughter, albeit through a morally gray request: to kill a renowned novelist named Kong. The stakes escalate as Guan learns about Kong’s bizarre ability to manifest his stories into reality, thus linking their fates in complex and disturbing ways.

As we transition between Guan’s anguish in the real world and Kong’s struggles in his fictional creations, parallels become evident. Kong's narrative seemingly transcends fiction, as he unwittingly draws Guan into a shared destiny.
